Con- nect the Ethernet cable to your computer’s Ethernet port and release and renew your computer’s IP address (refer to the Accessing the USR5430’s Web User Interface pages in this User Guide for more information). Launch an Internet browser and enter http://192.168.1.201 in the address line. Enter the username (the default username is admin) and the password (the default pass- word is admin) to access the Web User Interface. Select the Tools tab. From the New Firmware line, select Browse and locate where the downloaded firmware file was placed. Select Upgrade to start the upgrade. It is important that you do not unplug the cable or interrupt the upgrade. Allow several minutes for the adapter to reboot after the upgrade.
